How can our knowledge of muscle growth be used to treat degenerative diseases such as muscular dystrophy and related disorders?

A range of motion and stretching exercises can help combat the inevitable inward movement of the limbs as muscles and tendons shorten. Limbs tend to become fixed in position, and these types of activities can help keep them mobile for longer. Standard low-impact aerobic exercises such as walking and swimming can also help slow the disease’s progression.

Explanation:

The more we know about growth of the muscles, the more we can do to figure out treatments that are sustainable. If we know more about muscle growth, then we can know how it will react with treatment.
